Instructions
Directions
- Begin by chopping the cauliflower into small florets. Steam them until tender, about 5-7 minutes, to ensure they blend smoothly into the soup.
- In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Drain the excess fat and then add minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the steamed cauliflower and chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10 minutes to allow all the flavors to meld together.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Stir in the cream cheese and blend until fully melted and incorporated.
- Add the cheddar cheese into the pot and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
Notes
Opt for fresh cauliflower for the best flavor and texture; adjust seasoning to your preference.
